Event categories: author reading
Ladies Night! All female readers for this event and what a wonderful line up it is: J.M. Phillippe, Kate Jackson, Laurie Rockenbeck, Lisa Lieberman, and Roz Ray! (and me.)
I'll be reading from Storm Waters, but not the same sections I've read in the past. Due to commute silliness, I'll be first or second on the program, so please come early to get a good seat and cheer us on! (The rest of them are great, but I need all the help I can get)
Here's my schedule for OryCon:
Plainly I'll have a lot of free time on Friday and Saturday afternoon, so look for me around the bar, Green Room, or dealer's room if you want to chat about writing, editing, weird fiction or whatever. (Will read/write/chat for food. đ )
More books! Same authors! More Weird Tales! More Silliness! (and probably more coffee.) Local author Cherie Priest discusses her deliciously moody summer beach read with author Kat Richardson. The Drowning House is an unexpected supernatural thriller about a violent storm that washes a mysterious house onto Marrowstone Island stopping the heart of the only woman who knows what it means. There will be Q&A and book signing after the chat. Please consider buying the book here, to support the store and future author events.
Books! Authors! Weird Tales! Silliness! (and probably some coffee.) Priest will be discussing her new novel, The Drowning House, a tightly paced thriller that explores the lengths we'll go to protect those we love. She will be joined in conversation by local author Kat Richardson. This event is free and open to the public. There will be time for Q&A and book signing after the chat. Please consider buying the book here to support the store, and future author events.
The Northwest's oldest SFF convention by fans for fans. I'll be teaching a couple of writing/editing workshops, as well as sitting on several panels. I'll also be reading from my upcoming novel, and autographing stuff, hanging out, and being weird, so come and see me!
UPDATE: I have had to cancel and won't be attending Norwescon this year. Really sorry for the last-minute change. Hope to see you all next year!
